"Black. It appears absent, empty, vacuous and yet, it is everything. White. It appears open, expansive, limitless and yet, it is nothing. Back, white…gray. Somewhere in between the depth and the light are the shades of interpretation. In a unique departure from patina to perspective, international artist Richard MacDonald presents Blanc | Noir, an exploration into the varying tones of black and white."
Continuing in the spirit of his classical mimes, Richard MacDonald’s work entitled “Rain, Blanc Noir” offers us an experience with rain, wind, movement, and joy. We feel the wind blowing the scarves; we see him holding and imaginary umbrella; we sense the water dripping from the mime’s palm onto the ground below.
